It seems that the boys in blue have read the blog I posted on Monday, and have agreed with my analysis. Google will escape police prosecution as they’ve actually broken no (British) laws. Matt Warman, writing in today’s edition of the Daily Telegraph, did get the bit about a “small fine” wrong though – there won’t be any sort of fine (and for the reason I set out on Monday).
Matt ought to read my blog with a little more care. We don’t want journalists making silly mistakes like that, do we!
